FOOD. our favorite.

these days, i'm a working mom.
so, meals have to be delicious (because we hate boring), not be something that later micah will scream about when he gets his part, and be quick.

check out these new ones:

 taco pockets. 
basically, biscuits wrapped around taco meat and cheese. 
surprisingly delicious! and oh so easy.

 baked tilapia tacos.
breaded the tilapia with bread crumbs and lime juice, then baked the fillets for about 12 minutes at 350.
the slaw is red cabbage, white balsamic vinegar, lime juice, and a little bit of mayo mixed together.
it would be best with a fruit salsa (like pineapple?) on top, we thought.
but still pretty dang good.

 baked salmon.
fresh salmon, salt and pepper, oregano, lemon juice, rubbed with a little olive oil.  cooked in a foil packet at 400 degrees for about 25 minutes.
lemon dill sauce: about 1/4 cup miracle whip, about 1 teaspoon or so of lemon juice, about 1-1 1/2 teaspoons dill weed (i used dried, so much more if it's fresh), and about 1 1/2 teaspoons dijon mustard (make sure this is done to taste, because it could be overwhelming if you get too much).
holy yum.


other meals as of late:
ham and cheese made delicious by putting it into a croissant and into the toaster oven. so easy. so crazy good.
bbq chicken pizza: we discovered that with a little red onion and cilantro and a multigrain crust (added to the pineapple and chicken), it becomes ridiculously delicious.

eat it up.

  1. Your taco pockets are pretty much empanadas. Kyle had them in Argentina all the time so I make them occasionally :)
